Thought Trap

When there’s a need for something outside yourself it’s because of a thought trap. Until this is seen you will remain trapped as you seek to satisfy the thought with the next thing you think is needed…

You will never find the peace you’re seeking because seeking is a thought trap. Peace is something that’s already within everyone, but because of the way our minds are conditioned, the seeking of peace becomes a thought trap. Unfortunately a thought trap makes the very thing you’re seeking impossible to grasp. A thought trap is the reason you constantly look for something from the outside. Until this is seen you’ll remain in a thought trap thinking peace is in the next thing reached for. Alcohol, gambling, drugs, sex, religion, social status, programs, therapy, self help books, politics, and on and on, this is proof that there’s a thought trap. I can’t stress this enough as this thought trap has to be seen if you‘re to experience peace in your life.

Why there’s a thought trap is because of the inability to just be. When the need to look for something arises, the thought trap begins. This thought trap is a vicious cycle that’s very difficult to break. Breaking free of the thought trap and being at peace isn’t something attained or achieved. It’s by doing less (letting go) that peace is experienced. Too many people get lost (thought trap) trying to find peace through outer attachments. Since peace is something that’s already within you, the thought trap is a circle because it becomes about finding what’s already there. This is not easy to see, but look inward so the thought trap can be seen for what it is; the cause of why there’s a need to seek a peace that’s already in place…
